lyrics

The ones who led and lost their way.
The ones who followed went astray.
They didn’t find the light of day.
Twisted by the new religion.
Frightened by the final vision.
Compromised by distant laws that found the key and lost the door.

Something points me in a new direction but nothing changes at all.
Nothing changes my chain of thought.
I’ve been talking to the trees. They tell me “You’ve been too lonely too long.”
Far too lonely for far too long.
Far too lonely for far too long.
Far too lonely for too long.

Familiar faces turn to go.
I keep their names so that you’ll know the ones who loved you loved you so.
An endless day that passed in minutes.
The scale of time that fell within it
Swept its hands across your face
And gouged the lines – the fall from grace.

Something points me in a new direction but nothing changes at all.
Nothing changes my chain of thought.
Voices whisper on the breeze and tell me “You’ve been too lonely too long.”
Far too lonely for far too long.
Far too lonely for far too long.
Far too lonely for too long.

Something points me in a new direction but nothing changes at all.
Nothing changes my chain of thought.
I’ve been talking to the trees. They tell me “You’ve been too lonely too long.”
Far too lonely for far too long.
Far too lonely for far too long.
Far too lonely for too long.

Their music is permeated by the influence of The Beatles and David Bowie, but no other band sounds quite like The Vow ... more
